[QUOTE="jasonprox700, post: 1357465, member: 7328"] I've been running them out of my .280 for 7 or 8 years now. They are the 140's, so a little light. They have shot great, and I've been extremely happy with their performance on whitetails. I've never recovered a bullet, and the exits are half dollar sized. To me, they are about the perfect whitetail bullet. I just started loading some for my .308 AR, so we'll see how they perform in a couple of weeks. I have used the 225gr AB in my 338 WM on two occasions, once on a small black bear, and the other was on a mule deer buck. The bear was severely quartering away at 75 yards. The bullet entered behind the shoulder, traveled up through the neck, and stopped inside the skull. Perfect mushroom, but I never did weigh the bullet. The muley buck was taken at 498 yards. Shot entered in front of the hind quarter and exited just behind the off shoulder. Exit was half dollar sized. Again, I was extremely happy with the performance. I may try the 338 with the AB's for deer this year along with the 308, just to see how they do when presented with a closer shot. I feel it'll do great regardless. [/QUOTE]
